I gasped out loud when I read this last night prompting my husband to ask if I was ok. More than ok! I'm so excited for this.

We have lots of info about Musk and DOGE at Teslatakedown.com and new flyers and bullet points to hand out at protests, like this one!

Historian here: “To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ― Theodore Roosevelt

Don’t sign contracts with Nazis.

What - and I can't stress this enough - the fuck.

Ever thought about running for office? Here's a site with info on how to do it. If possible, people who aren't fascists need to start signing up. runforsomething.net

another life (2021)

Dear third-party voters, you’ve been awfully quiet. What’s up? What’s the game plan for the next 3 years and 11 months? Asking for 75,017,626 friends who did the right thing because we wanted to avoid all of this shit!!!

📢 “He’s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. He’s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. He’s looting everything good in America for private profit.” - @aoc.bsky.social at today’s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isn’t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

💥ATTENTION FEDS💥 All the termination letters going out that we've seen use "inadequate performance" as the reason for termination. SAVE YOUR PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS. Tell your friends who aren't on bluesky! Probationary employees can't be fired for "poor performance" if their performance is not poor

We have Musk protest events popping up at Tesla showrooms and plants all over the country and many more here and worldwide. Join or create your own event at Teslatakedown.com

And let me put an even sharper point on this: Oppressed people have lived OFTEN with the TOTALITY of formal information coming directly from their oppressors. And they have STILL fought for liberation, again and again and again.

BREAKING On Monday, Popular Information broke the news that the NIH had frozen virtually all grant funding in violation of 2 federal court orders On Wednesday, NIH leadership distributed a memo, acknowledging that its funding freeze was illegal and directing staff to resume issuing grants.

Sleepy kittens from earlier today.

Awhile back, someone asked authors which of their books they'd put a certain loathsome billionaire into & I fully get why @delilahsdawson.bsky.social said Guillotine! This book was great. Cathartic even! Horrible things happen to horrible ultra rich assholes in a neat, tight story. Loved it!

Hey NYTimes — *now* you’re lighting the beacons? NOW?!? After months of “Sauron: Avatar Of Evil… Or Extreme Uniter?” thumbsucker reporting you’re screaming what we’ve known since 2015? Fuck all the way off.

Here’s some advice for those outside our coalition, as the administration is actively leading a witch hunt for resistance members. If you’re a government employee, avoid using government devices to coordinate. Do not use standard messaging apps on Android or Apple devices.

Guillotine earrings AND Guillotine by @delilahsdawson.bsky.social ! WOO! I think it's gonna be a good week.

Listen to Secretary Pete. And remember, these are our funds. These are our courts. And these are our streets.

Glorious!

Happy Super Bowl Sunday!

this is the sort of thing you post when you’re ramping up to defying lawful court orders

Oops 😬

We will never stop fighting to protect public service workers. If you’re in the D.C. area, join us & AFGE on Tuesday, Feb. 11 at 12 p.m. on Capitol Hill to #GetOrganized and make our voices heard!

don’t get overwhelmed! pick 2-3 things and focus your energy there. for example, I am: - crying in my morning coffee - making a list of people I would like to catapult out to sea - staring out the window

We could’ve had Tim 😭

If citizens would like to peaceably protest outside US AID today.

I know I’m not alone on this.

YouTube showed me something I didn't know I needed. Locked Tomb fan animation to a cover of "Take Me to Church." It's glorious. (deleted & reposted because one of my hashtags indicated I'd forgotten what site I was on, lol) #booksky #LockedTomb www.youtube.com/watch?v=5i1-...

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Tonight we are having the ONLY Steampunk Awards Show (that I am currently aware of)! Join us for silliness and celebration! #steampunk

POSSUM-MAN: The signal is lit. My city needs me

Tiny bit of faith in humanity restored.

It really is like he thinks an executive order is a magic spell.

Is this even “your” chair? Does it truly belong to you? Do you own the sunbeam? Is the very air yours, too

“Gargle my balls” and “lawyer” are the only correct things to say to ICE or any other cops.

one thing keeping me going right now is the knowledge that in March we get a new Lady Gaga album. I also still have to finish Onyx Storm.

LIVE 👏 TO 👏 SEE 👏 THEM 👏 DIE
